Preliminary Print Task

For the preliminary print task I had to create a school magazine front cover as well as an article to go with it. my ideas from this task came from school newsletters, magazine's and other print publications. For both my magazine cover and article I focused on the schools GCSE results for 2011. Below is a copy of my work and  an annotated version of my magazine cover explaining the design.
